Very nice job on the rifle. Looking at your Web site, I cannot help but smell that sage, which I surely do miss.

Thank you, and that sage is out there where you want to wander through it again!

Thanks, Jim! You have made it possible for an unskilled rube such as myself to successfully build an excellent rifle. Thank you for a great product, and we all look forward to seeing what is next from Kibler Longrifles.

I usually have maple in my head for the SMR, but that walnut and the job you did on it has me thinking.
Really nice!

Super job on that walnut. May I ask what you used? Stain or dye? Finish type? Thanks (I'm doing one in walnut).

Thanks! I used Tried & True Varnish Oil - multiple coats. Then 2 coats of Minwax Antique Oil finish. Then polished it with rottenstone on a rag with a bit of linseed oil. Finished it up with a wax.

I see a can of LMF Stain in one of the pics. What color was that. That walnut has a nice color to it. Well done.

I keep going back and forth between Walnut and Cherry for the SMR I am planning. My son used to live in the area where Whitson worked.

Great result with the stock - i really like the color ... A great- looking build (nice photos, too).
